Sell a port option (for 1 gold)
Hethwill, the Red Duke replied to Thonys's topic in Current Feature Improvement Suggestions
All theorycraft. Hard number or calculation formula, how much does a port cost ? -

How much does a Port cost ? -
Ok thank you. A potential always equal fight inside the PB at the expense of operational/tactical deployment in the OW ( tied with the social aspect of the game which enables the clans helping each other). Thanks for your answers.

Okay, so the PB entry timer just shifts to 1 hour earlier although the PB only starts 1 hour later. What is the "profit" for the gameplay ?= ( I agree with Crusty, the rule is very gamey but, regarding the past tests this is the less intrusive solution yet - no alts taking spots, no blocking conquest with alt flags, etc )

You will be given a free card, as an attacker, that works against the effort of being "social enough" ( not fro a month but for years now ) and having a nice reputation AND having that very much needed screen fleet. Or maybe i'm not getting it right. Say a small nation has 1 port and you want it. They send out a SOS and the entire server comes to their aid. But the Attackers are already inside the port. Is this how it will work if implemented ?

Sure. I understand the reasoning now. Next step, to what real purpose ? ( gamewise )

Exactly, can enter 1 hour in advance of the PB start timer, that's what I meant. How is it different from the old "hide in a battle" in front of a PB ?

So, extend Conquest window by 1 hour but just for attacker because OW screening can happen which buys time for the fleet in port (defender ) to sally and gain advantage of strategic PB map positions ( circles ). Am I interpreting correctly ? Thanks.

It is and it needs a nice name, not just PvE. -

Makes no sense. RP and hardcore survival pvp go often hand in hand. Rename it Pacific and all is great. -
Forts still shoot green on green
Hethwill, the Red Duke replied to Gott365's topic in Current Feature Improvement Suggestions
There's a solution to that, no join circles , immediate close. -
especially if he chance encounters a groups that lives of robbing traders in thse "empty" trade routes, right ? Ask Tuck and all his eco alts how many times we chance encounter him in the middle of nowhere. OW is all about - you don't know what is beyond the horizon. May be nothing, may be your doom. Risk sailing or not at all.

boarding

Surrender button = Abandon ship. Very gamey but that's it. just a button name to represent abandon ship, abandon hope, give up, whatever you wish to imagine. -
War and Peace

I won't disagree I like the historical starting point of NA - how history gets rewritten is up to the players. Gives a sense of being and belonging, but beyond that point it is down to the players to fit in - NOT to expect an entire nation to save their "anonymous" arse. A nation of clans, each doing their own doing, is born of "crying and whining and finger pointing" all day long in nation because ppl can't handle loss and man up to the conflict. It is hard and everyone, everyone, had to grow up in a constant war and raids and whatnot. Everyone was a newcomer once. In the nation's tour i came to a conclusion . all nations are the same regarding the "crying and whining and finger pointing" - 100% accurate. The only exceptions, that prove that fact, happen when all "so called pros" orbit to one nation or when a nation population gets so depleted that it becomes negligible. -

Le Requin Testing and Feedback
Hethwill, the Red Duke replied to admin's topic in News Announcements & Important discussions
Look, I will be direct as suggested by a fellow in another thread. ALL SHIPS including the XEBEC: - Remove the godamn permanent winkie pinkies mods and encyclopedias and whatnot from all ships and enjoy the ships as their architects planned them. - have the chance to hire marines, etc, we have that already. - select build woods Simple. Simple. Simple. Yet we go round and round blaming the ship for what the mods and encyclopedias and books do to her. Yet you want to massacre one ship is sake of keeping your precious little mods in all other ships. I call it bulshit when you say the mods make the ship OP and you want to nerf the ship. Have a good weekend. Hope a Barbary Coast horde of red sails invades every single stretch of the caribbean. -
